Your first Star Wars I’m currently playing Lego City Undercover with my five- and three-year-old sons, which they both love. The beauty of it for them is the simplicity with the game mechanics, which allow them to achieve something and progress slowly.

Would the new Stars Wars game be too complex for them, as you didn’t mention how old the kids were you play tested with in the review.

They still haven’t seen Star Wars but know some of the characters, but both love Lego. We have only just started playing together (once a week) but their skills improve each week.Ross K

GC: We played with a five-and-a-half-year-old, who has relatively little experience with non-touchscreen games and he was fine with everything but the space combat.

We should also point out the game has a ‘7’ age rating, although we’ve no idea why as the efforts the cut scenes go to in order not to show anyone dying are bizarre.

Ongoing secret I was going to write in and say, if ever there was a game series where canon didn’t matter, it was Monkey Island. The ending of the second game implied it was all in the imagination of a kid at a theme park for crying out loud.

But looking it up to check my facts made me realise, I do need to know what the hell that ending was all about. I do need to know what the secret of Monkey Island actually was. And I do definitely want to play this next game. And Murray better be in it.EvilMoomin
